These are all dynamic marks. It's quite easy to catch once you get the basics right. For instance:

poco = more

piu = a little

appasionato = with passion, with feeling (pasionato sounds like passion, so there)

dolce = sweetly

so basically poco piu appasionato means a little more passion. As for 'piu f' it means a little louder, or whatever the second dynamic marking entails. It can also be 'piu p' meaning piu piano (a little quieter).

Dynamic markings are rather easy to follow once you get them right. But I can't seem to find anything on ammando. The closest I can get is animando, meaning lively, or more directly, animated.

EDIT: Wil G says it's actually amando = lovingly. Thanks!
